I totally get what you're saying. But what it comes down to is that the work is ours. I mean, I'll happily wait until reveals are made (in the cases of anon exchanges) or until something has been officially posted (like this one was). But to sign up for a fest and be told I can't post elsewhere until the whole fest is over, and having no idea when that will be... Well that just doesn't sit so well with me.

I'm not trying to cause problems. But there's a limit, you know?
